As far as this project is concerned, it will help me to understand the overall working of the equity market & its importance to the economy of the India. A huge amount of money flows & millions of shares exchange hands in a single market day. This exchange of shares enables the flow of money in & out of a firm. The company whose shares are listed & the government who plays a pivotal role through the policies formed in the market, helps them to raise long term funds which can be used for the benefit & the growth of the companies & also give back some part of their profit to the investor in the form of dividends.

Fundamental Analysis on Oil Sector
Fundamental analysis is the examination of the underlying forces that affect the well being of the economy, industry groups, and companies. As with most analysis, the goal is to derive a forecast profit from future price movements. At the company level, fundamental analysis may involve examination of financial data, management, business concept and competition. At the industry level, there might be an examination of supply and demand forces for the products offered. For the national economy, fundamental analysis might focus on economic data to assess the present and future growth of the economy. To forecast future stock prices, fundamental analysis combines economic, industry, and company analysis to derive a stock's investment opportunity. Fundamental analysis is a method used to determine the value of a stock by analyzing the financial data that is 'fundamental' to the company.
Fundamental analysis does not look at the overall state of the market nor does it include behavioral variables in its methodology. It focuses exclusively on the company's business in order to determine whether or not the stock should be bought or sold. To buy a share of stock a investor is buying a proportional share in a business. As a consequence, to figure out how much the stock is worth, one should determine how much the business is worth. Investors generally need to assess the company's financials in terms of per-share values in order to calculate how much the proportional share of the business is worth. Some knows this as “fundamental” analysis, and most who use it view it as the only kind of rational stock analysis.
